USA For Africa - We Are The World



Uploaded by: Milenio90
Video Description:
USA for Africa (United Support of Artists for Africa), was the name under which forty-five predominantly U.S. artists, led by Harry Belafonte, Kenny Rogers, Michael Jackson, and Lionel Richie, recorded the hit single "We Are the World" in 1985. The song was a US and UK Number One for the collective in April of that year.
The considerable profits from the enterprise went to the USA for Africa Foundation, which used them for the relief of famine and disease in Africa; critics, however, claim that this money went directly to the (often military) governments of the affected countries rather than the people. A recordi
ng of the live performance was released with the Live Aid DVD set released on November 8, 2004.

It's really neat to see all these voices with different tones and textures, and artists with vastly different musical backgrounds come together just once for a great cause.

"there's a choice we're making... we're saving our own lives, it's true we make a better day, just you and me" he talks through the entire thing... T_T...

yeah! except bob dyllan's voice... T_T why woiuld they even consider having him in the video, or be ANY part of the song is beyond me... I guess because people are like "oh, bob dyllan is in this" and so they'll buy the record just cause bobby's in it just like people with steve perry (who is awesome!) will say "oh! it's steve perry!" and they'll buy it cus he sings in it, however steve perry is very very very very very good, but bob dyllan...*cricket*...*cricket*...
